So...think I just got my first hate/spam comment on Ao3 for my current fic. Initially, it did kinda upset me, I won't lie. However, looking at it rationally, I can see that it's probably spam because it mentions nothing specific about the story (they commented on chapter 18 and mention nothing about the story progression? huh, bit sus) and, quite frankly, is just ludicrous in its accusations.
I'd love to know what they think my own agenda is.
(Also, I looked up the username: it does exist but having looked on their profile, I'm more convinced that it is a spam commenter using someone else's username. Which, quite frankly, is awful.)
If, on the off chance, that this is real and is a genuine comment, why would you read a fic this long (over 100,000 words at the point of comment) and comment something so: 1) nasty and 2) vague? And also, why hide behind a guest user? Just be brave and log in if you're going to hate. Or, better yet, click the little back button and exit the fic.
Got my first hate comment on AO3. Does that mean I made it? Am I cool now?
Can’t even be upset at this one it’s just really fucking funny. Yeah. Maybe instead of writing I should consider therapy.
Idk how old middle school is but I definitely did not peak then. If it’s when you’re like 13 I was using PicsArt as a social media.
First hate comment in 25 years. Not spam, not tag or plot complains but like: You are ugly, old, pathetic and can't write.
Seems like someone studied my profile extensively. 😕

I literally started laughing at work when I saw this comment. I wish I knew who this person was (I have the sneaky suspicion it's not actually that person, I did a search for their AO3 name and literally nothing they have could be related to RNM...no fics of their own (save 1 for Good Omens) and all of their bookmarked fics have nothing to do with RNM, so I believe this is an imposter using this person's penname to go around spreading hate...but I digress), just so I could thank them for the laugh.
See, here's the thing...
1) I have the fic TAGGED as a human AU, that there's no aliens in the fic at all. So, kudos to them for not reading tags.
2) They commented on chapter 10, which means either they read all the way thru it, or they skipped straight to the end to comment. Either way, didn't force them to read it soooooooo....
And lastly
3) I cut my teeth on FanFiction.Net waaaaaaaay back in the day. We're talking, at this point, 20+ years ago, okay? Like, this little "hate" comment is NOTHING compared to the flaaaaaaaaames I use to get on FFN. Like, literal comments of "This story sucks! It's absolute trash! Do us all a favor and kill yourself" kinda deals back in the day, okay?
Coming at me to say it's OOC and "stupid" and that they aren't fond of "human alternate universe bullshit" is just honestly kind of adorable.
Someone woke up today and tried to be a bitch, but ultimately came at the wrong person if they were hoping to upset me or hurt my feelings about the fic.
Think I'll just leave the comment for posterity.
Did some anon really think that they're so entitled to leave a huge ass hate message like that and think it's okay??? Like if they REALLY sat there and read a fic they didn't like for THAT. LONG. Just to leave that message, well damn, dedication. But also, entitled af. As if their presence is some sort of magical element for you. Like they really think you'd be going on your hands and knees begging for forgiveness because they read your fic and didn't like it L I K E I'm so sorry they did that
Thank you!!
I used to get stuff like this back when I was writing for a different fandom and I’d just let it feel like crap and move on. It took me growing up a bit to realize that there’s a difference between constructive criticism and just being a jerk because they can. Comments like that don’t make me sad anymore but I feel like writers have the right to stand up for themselves and their work.
Wow the fact that guest commenter was disappointed in my character choices for canonical geniuses really makes me rethink all of the time I spent on this 60k fanfiction which I wrote purely for my own enjoyment. Thank you guest commenter who payed no attention to the inner monologue explaining the character choice I made in order to prevent this story from following the predictable liar revealed narrative! I’ll now rewrite this entire 60k story I wrote months ago while balancing a full time job, full time classes, and commissions because I just can’t live with disappointing a guest commenter.
